https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx59QaQgrFU&list=PLfUV806q_Ri6-TQ4uOc4s3IH8yqu9Zp5F&index=7
After they stop noodling around on the intro and they drop the fucking hammer - "god DAAMN" indeed.
All of that NOLA record this great, but this is the riff I like best.




High on Fire- Bastard Samurai

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyVv9RCrGCA


A riff so heavy that it'll tear your balls off, grind them into a fine paste, season and serve them back to you in a selection of fine canapes.

Captain Crunch

Truckfighters-Monte Gargano
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a_uA6dRExw
Sunny tune for a dull day.

Fleetwood Mac - Oh Well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8RhZDGLEXM
So many versions of this up, hope this is a good one.

Kyuss - Supa Scoopa And Mighty Scoop
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff9bWsc2UOo
Or anything by Kyuss at all.

Mountain Witch - Stone The Witch
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XJuNqP3Z1I
Love love love that lanky clanky drum sound!

Fu Manchu - Godzilla

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1Najo_8Tvc

The Heads - Quad

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUV4WfepF4E (apparently takes an entire minute to get up to speed, so be patient)

Nebula - Giant

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqB_GwvVNm0

Is this the kind of thing?

I'm sure I posted this in the last riffs thread, but what the hell, people need to hear this.

Boulder - Rage with the Dead:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7PDp9P5XWk

Still my favourite riff to play when fannying about. Warning: you and a drummer can get stuck in a loop playing this in a rehearsal room until the rest of your bandmates start beating you over the head with mic stands to make you stop.

Yarp. Matt Pike might be a madman, or possibly just a bit of a tit (he's a big fan of David Icke, apparently) but he's a god damned genius with a guitar. To whit: The Black Plot To woo: Marijuanaut's Theme

Stoner/desert rock and it's related subgenres have never let me down for great riffs. Kyuss were top of the pile for a long time, but I've lately found myself favouring Fu Manchu - King of the Road being a good one.

I recently discovered Red Fang. Their "We drink loads of beer!" schtick wears thin after a few videos, but their rockability remains strong: Prehistoric Dog

As I read through this thread, I thought "this needs some Red Fang." You nailed it.

I'll add this while I'm here:

Red Fang: Wires

That time Cleft and Alpha Male Tea Party treated ArcTanGent to a big fat pile of some of their favourite riffs:

spaghetamine

It's basic as fuck but Satanic Rites of Drugula by Electric Wizard is magnificent

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUyO3j6jn5U

Pink Gregory

That whole album is basically two riffs.

But *what* riffs.

Im too lazy to link to it but ZZ Top - Just Got Paid is fuckin speed metal avant la lettre

That riff is just fucking laconic, laid back cool in music form.


For those with more metallic taste, Vogg of Decapitated is worthy of your attention. I've never heard a riffer with more precision and he's really dialled up the Pantera-like groove to his playing in the last decade or so.

This one is a chugger extraordinaire:

Disturbing the Priest (besides Zero of course)
Seventh Star
Ancient Warrior
Headless Cross
Anno Mundi
Master of Insanity (i kinda suspect geezer wrote the intro riff but i dont know. But its fuckin nuts)
I Witness
Shaking Off the Chains (no f u Forbidden is worth listening to. Just cause they hated each other by this point and had to get an album out doesnt mean its not got loads of cool moments)
